Does the father deserve an investigation into his sons death? I think he deserbmved that. What do you think?
----
The father of a Navy SEAL killed during a mission that Donald Trump approved just a week into his administration blames the president for his son?s death.
William Owens told The Miami Herald that he refused to meet with Trump when the remains of son, William ?Ryan? Owens, were returned to Dover Air Force Base.
Owens questioned Trump?s motivation for signing off on a mission just six days into his presidency.
?Why at this time did there have to be this stupid mission when it wasn?t even barely a week into his administration? Why?? he asked. ?For two years prior, there were no boots on the ground in Yemen ? everything was missiles and drones ? because there was not a target worth one American life. Now, all of a sudden we had to make this grand display??
Although U.S. military officials told The New York Times that ?everything went wrong? during the mission, the Trump administration has called the operation a success. Administration officials have claimed that an investigation would tarnish the memory Owen?s son, but the father disagrees.
?Don?t hide behind my son?s death to prevent an investigation,? he remarked. ?I want an investigation. ? The government owes my son an investigation.?
